I will be doing the welding, but i have done 1/16 before so it wont be too hard.
1/16th isn't bad, just remember that pure tungsten is pure cr*p and 50ar/50he shielding gas is worth its weight in gold. These two things make welding aluminum much much much easier.

Also, I swear by this guy's advice. He really knows his stuff and is super responsive to emails.

Good luck!
